Rome.

The relationship between the First Terror Organization and the US has been very tense recently, due to the fact that the First Terror Organization joined forces with the mafia to wipe out M2 entirely. M2 was a covert organization secretly supported by America; it was classified as top secret, and only a few departments involved in counter-terrorism were aware of its existence. Now that M2 has been completely destroyed, especially with their military activities in Lebanon, they swiftly dismantled M2's headquarters, dealing a fatal blow to the counter-terror efforts. The conflict between the First Terror Organization and counter-terrorism is on the verge of exploding, with preparations for a large-scale war at any moment.

This complete annihilation of M2 doesn't just refer to several bases being wiped out; it's more like a massive cleanup operation where all M2 bases were eliminated. The retaliation operation initiated by Chu Li and Ye Wei and others is on an enormous scale, with immense destructive power. When one M2 base leaked its virus, causing fatal harm to the local residents, tens of thousands of townspeople had to be relocated out of necessity. This incident occurred in a town in California where the US government couldn't provide a suitable explanation for the viral leak. The public, unaware that this was part of a confrontation between their government and a terrorist organization, staged massive protests demanding a reasonable explanation from the government.

No matter how far-reaching a conspiracy is, it will eventually be exposed one day; it hasn't been because there hasn’t been enough time yet.

Ye Wei, Shiyi, Mo Ye, and Mo Que were all not in Rome at this time. After the clearance plan was established, M2 had many bases to deal with, so they flew to various locations along with Jason, Little Iron, and Chu Li personally overseeing operations on the ground. They wouldn't allow any mistakes whatsoever; this was their counteroffensive after years of peace where they hadn’t caused much terror or harm. If they didn't fight back, they would always be passively attacked, which made no sense.

Baiye and Su Man, as well as Ye's Third Young Master, stayed in Rome to take care of Kaka’s illness and protect the relatives in Rome. Mo Chen was responsible for all internal transactions within the mafia, providing intelligence, and formulating plans for counterattacks and evacuations.

The focus of the mafia is on criminal transactions, not military operations. The First Terrorist Organization primarily deals with arms and military affairs. This time, the mafia mainly provides over a hundred agents and all available underworld resources to cooperate with the offensive actions of the First Terrorist Organization.

Over the past few years, the First Terrorist Organization has taken a more moderate approach. Yan Ningyuan has been cooperating with anti-terrorism efforts, thereby also working with the government. If there are no major conflicts, they usually benefit each other without interfering in one another's affairs. However, for a hegemonic country, the existence of the First Terrorist Organization is too threatening; thus, they cannot truly allow it to exist. Whenever an opportunity arises, they will attempt to eliminate the First Terrorist Organization.

Even with the most moderate dealings and interactions, there are some secrets that cannot be disclosed between the government and the First Terrorist Organization. For instance, the government's M2 organization was specifically established to counteract the First Terrorist Organization. Moreover, while Yan Ningyuan collaborates with the government by promising not to secretly develop weapons of massive destructive power or exceed a certain number in military forces, he continues behind the scenes to research such weapons and control their distribution, as well as cultivate his own army across land, sea, and air domains—ordinary members are talents capable of taking on hundreds.

How can the government not be wary

Besides a major clash decades ago between the First Terrorist Organization and the mafia, along with conflicts in the Middle East, they have never truly witnessed the terrifying power of the First Terrorist Organization over the past few decades.

The leaders of the government have changed several times in these decades; it's not the same group as before. Many people today did not experience that era and don't understand how dangerous it is. They think that since the First Terrorist Organization hasn't planned any terrorist activities, it's just a bluff—just another major arms dealer with advanced weaponry.

During the incident in Mexico's forest when the army suffered heavy losses, they attributed this to having too many enemies and superior weapons but did not truly realize the danger involved.

If the Mexican forest was just a prelude, then this time wiping out m2 serves as an early warning. The First Terror Organization has clearly demonstrated its strength, not even showing all of it, which is already enough to make the government nervous.

After decades of relative peace, the First Terror Organization still retains such formidable power.

It's said that comfort can sap one’s fighting spirit. Comfort is the biggest enemy for any criminal organization, yet after decades of living in such ease and luxury, the First Terror Organization remains as strong as ever; they don't resist not because they lack strength but because they prefer to avoid unnecessary casualties.

With a mafia group added to the mix, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The battles between the First Terror Organization and the mafia back then nearly triggered World War III. When united, their power is almost invincible. No wonder the government has always harbored fear towards them and continuously sought ways to suppress them.

m2's bases are widely scattered, mostly in the Middle East, North America, and Eastern Europe, totaling more than a dozen locations. Over these decades, they have trained countless top agents. Launching such large-scale crackdowns inevitably results in casualties for both the First Terror Organization and the mafia.

Although efforts were made to minimize losses, it's impossible to avoid any casualties altogether.

Byakuya was exhausted from worrying about Kaka's illness, already on the eighth day. He still couldn't change the fact that Kaka was in a state of brain death and could only watch helplessly as his life slipped away.

If no solution is found within a few more days, Kaka will be declared truly dead.

His heart had originally been an artificial one, with the primary disease still existing. Added to this was severe damage to his brain tissue and bleeding, leading to brain death. This situation was rather complicated. He and Su Man had tried every possible method, but the results were unsatisfactory.

He had used all the methods he could think of.

Moyao's external injuries were slowly recovering, while Kaka continued to remain in a deep sleep.

Byakuya was anxious.

Since Byakuya came to understand things, he'd never felt so helpless. Back then, his helplessness when pursuing Su Man had been tinged with frustration; now it was filled with regret. He regretted not having read more books and studied this field of knowledge more thoroughly, leading to the situation where Kaka could not be saved. As long as he can survive, heart problems can be gradually solved, but once declared dead, there will truly be no way at all.hest...Little White held her hand, turned around, and kissed her cheek with a smile.
